Hello again,The subject this time concerns badbeats with a specific card hitting my hand more than others. I have played for over 5 years on the net for both real and fake chips at 3 different places and have seen this at all of them.
When I'm gettiing crappy cards and bad beats.(you know the drill,whatever you have is'nt good enough to win),I tend to see that I'm getting one card more than others. I have logged many hands over the years and have found this to be true,not just my imagination.I know that 100 to 200 hands is a small sample but after doing this many times I always see the same result. I have recieved a 9 in as many as 76% of my hands as opposed to between 30 to 40 % for any other card in the deck. Since I play mostly 8/b a 9 or above usually screws my hand unless I can make a high hand out of it.But usually,and I have stayed to the end for many hands just to see the rest of it,usually after getting the one card ( whatever it happens to be that night) my hand is screwed.In fact after getting that one card I seldom can win with that hand. I would like to know if anyone has noticed this also?

Sorry but the examples I gave were for 7stud 8/b.I know this is mostly a holdem forum but surely people play other games. I also have seen an unusual amount of hands like 9 2 or 9 4 in holdem when i'm having bad beats and no I don't play those hands.

Sorry,the bad beats are on other hands.its just that when that is happening on a regular basis some nites,I notice that in my junk hands i get the same card over and over.So its either junk cards with that one pesky card that keeps coming back,or damn good hands that should win but don't.I was playing the other nite and out of 7 hands in 7stud 8/b i had a 9 on 4th street
6 times.In holdem i've noticed a repeat of cards like 9 2 followed by 7 2 then maybe 10 2 then a switch to one of the bigger cards maybe like 10 7 then 10 9. i've logged a lot of hands and its interesting to see how many times my hands have mirrored themselves.I was just wondering if anyone had noticed a pattern similar to this.
